Equality Statement
At Wood Green Academy, we are committed to ensuring equality of opportunity for all pupils, staff, parents and carers irrespective of race, gender, disability, belief, sexual orientation, age or socio-economic background. We aim to develop a culture of inclusion and diversity in which all those connected to the school feel proud of their identity and ability to participate fully in school life.
We aim to create an environment which encourages respect for all and we tackle any form of discrimination through the positive promotion of equality, by challenging bullying and stereotypes.
We celebrate the fact that our school, our local community and our Wood Green family is diverse and this is a key characteristic and strength which should be respected and celebrated by all those who learn, teach and visit us.
